I am a millionaire….

by Maureen McCabe on April 12, 2011

I am a millionaire. Not money. I am a millionaire when it comes to points. As of yesterday I had a million points on ActiveRain, a real estate network. I have been a member since July 2006 and have written blog posts there since August 2006 so the million points did not happen over night. What are the points worth? Well until last Friday they weren’t worth anything. Now they are worth something to new members and members who have not been active.

I am “grandfathered.” I’ve been grandfathered over and over.

I spent 100 points last week on ActiveRain to tag a troll… and I still have enough points to say “I am a millionaire….” … in ActiveRain points.

ActiveRain is the largest real estate network in the world. I would say in the country or in the US but a lot of ActiveRain members are in Canada. A few ActiveRain members are sprinkled elsewhere around the globe.

My three hyper local blogs (in the sidebar here) are written on ActiveRain:

Do you see those sites in the right side bar? If you were looking for Central Ohio real estate you may run into those sites in the search engines. That is #5 in a list of “Five (5) Reasons Why you should join Active Rain Now. If you are a home inspector, a real estate agent, a loan officer, a home builder, an architect, an insurance agent or in any career related to the real estate industry consider this your invitation to join ActiveRain. Join by Friday and do a little work and you could win an iPad. I could too….

2. You write a post. It can be anything. “50 words saying Hello.” It will be Members Only unless you upgrade to a RainMaker so not that many people will read it. My first ActiveRain post? I said something like “Duh, It’s blogging!”

3. You invite 5 people who accept. RE agents, lenders, home stagers, home inspectors….

4. You get one of your invitees to write a post.

5. YOU are in the running to win one of the two iPad’s ActiveRain is giving away.

Who can you invite:

The Delaware County site? My ActiveRain blog that is #6 in the Google search above. I started it in March. About March 20, 2011 I believe.

Yes, ActiveRain is work but someone has to do it. So that’s it. If you are in the real estate industry and want to learn about using blogging and social media, consider joining ActiveRain real estate network. If you join ActiveRain (using my invite link above) and I win an iPad from ActiveRain, you may borrow it….

Hi Maureen, Congrats on the Million points. You are a leader on the largest real estate network out there. Pretty impressive. You have inspired many with your writing. Like you, I have set up an outside blog for my community. You can find it at http://www.allalbuquerquerealestate.com
